Just for interest, after plowing through this entire thread, I now have 38 pages of good tips and mods for the Radian Pro.

You are to be commended for doing all that reading. I have read through 230 pages of a couple of threads, and about 200 pages of this one. I know how long it takes. After going to all that work, it would be great if you could make a summary of the mods and tips for the benefit of all...

Would be great to have 1 page hosted somewhere with all the mods listed that everyone has done for the Radian Pro. I'd be happy to build it and host it if anyone has that information they'd like to see in one single place.

Thanks for the offer. Someone here has an extensive blog on RCG with several mods. They will sooner or later identify themselves again.

Perhaps it is time to close this forum ( which only Chuck the lost Thrill Seeker moderator can do ), start a new one and reserve the first 5 or 6 posts for the "sticky" which you can't do at a thread level ( only the forum level )... similar to the orginization of the 808 #16 Key Cam thread... for an itemization of mods, links etc

The downside is having anyone person host a web, be the "keeper 'o the blog", moderate a thread, or be "Keeper 'o the FAQ" and wondering where they will be next year. The pros of this Ad Hoc thread is that there will always be someone here to point new folks to previous messages, partial summaries of basic mods and more.

A real downside is a newbee reading hundreds of messages of an non existant problem such as the original prop. But it could be worse. Some of us started on the Easy Star threads years ago... enough said

Good idea. I was thinking the same thing after reading of Streg's ordeal.
Yes, the keycam thread model is a good one, reserving a few posts for FAQ's, but Tom must be retired because it looks like a full time job. The RP would probably not be so time intensive.

Programming of different radios for the full house RP is a common question too.

If someone wants to start a thread, here is some info for a start:
Here is a list of the most common modifications.

I couldn't maiden my RP today so at the least I wanted to get some numbers from the watt meter.
I'm running an Eflite 480 (1020kv) with Graupner Cam 10x6 blades.
On a 3 cell it pulled 224 watts at 21.5 amps. My AUW is 33.7 oz so this puts it about 107 watts per pound which I think will be plenty.
